On one of Renno’s regular hunting hikes in the woods just outside the Seneca, he encountered a huge bear. Renno knew what he had to do, and that was of itself to fight the bear with only the knife he had on him. “The bear towered over him, and Renno struck at the furry throat with all of his strength”(Porter 16). He took down the bear, and had to have three grown men drag it out the woods. This shows how brave he was as a young boy to just stand up to a such vicious animal. Another example of Renno’s bravery was when he was going to take an arrow for his brother. “... and leaping to one side, he raced toward Elechi to throw him to the ground and cover and cover his brothers body with his own” (Porter 55). Renno and his brother Elechi had been seen by an opposing tribes soldier, and as soon as Renno saw him he performed his great act of fearlessness. To stand there and just let it happen to die for his nation shows just that. On top of being brave, Renno showed great
